Nisha Masharani

Hi, I'm Nisha. I am a senior at Stanford majoring in CS, with a focus in Theory. Some of the coursework I have done includes Algorithms (CS161, CS167, CS265), Systems (CS107, CS110, CS143), Theory (CS103, CS109), Artificial Intelligence (CS221), and HCI (CS147).

This past summer, I was an Associate Product Manager Intern at Google working on adding new features to the Similar Audiences product in the Google Display Network. Previously, I was a Software Engineering intern at Google working on the Personal Search team. The year before that, I spent the summer doing HCI research with Professor Scott Klemmer.

Outside of CS, I am involved with a number of different student organizations. I am the Executive Producer (CEO) of Ram's Head Theatrical Society, and I have also worked on several shows as Technical Director and Lighting Designer. I also was a section leader and counselor for the Bridge Peer Counseling Center for over a year. In Winter 2014, I studied abroad in Kyoto, Japan studying Japanese religion, art, and culture. I also love drinking tea, cooking, and hiking.
